at New Castle Army Air Base.

The orders were to fly south,
but her plane was in Philly
101
00:05:45,970 --> 00:05:48,222
so why was she traveling north?
102
00:05:48,264 --> 00:05:50,099
Back then,
most planes didn't have radar.
103
00:05:50,141 --> 00:05:51,642
Some of them didn't
even have radios.
104
00:05:51,684 --> 00:05:53,770
You couldn't track a plane
once it was in the air.
105
00:05:53,811 --> 00:05:55,646
So, Vivian was bucking
her orders?
106
00:05:55,688 --> 00:05:57,940
- Flying somewhere else?
- Doer had access to her plane.
107
00:05:57,982 --> 00:06:00,902
Knew how to switch
coolant and oil lines.
108
00:06:00,943 --> 00:06:02,070
Could be a mechanic.
109
00:06:02,111 --> 00:06:04,947
Can't imagine the men were
too happy sharing their base.
110
00:06:04,989 --> 00:06:06,616
I'll check the records
for anyone fits the bill.
111
00:06:06,657 --> 00:06:09,702
Ask the base for flight
schedules, accident reports.

Well, go have a talk, see
if she can shed some light

on why Vivian was flying over
the City of Brotherly Love.
128

Army said winds
caused the crash
129
00:06:58,584 --> 00:07:01,003
but that girl could have flown
through a tornado
130
00:07:01,045 --> 00:07:03,756
and been in the mess hall
at chowtime.
131
00:07:03,798 --> 00:07:05,508
Ah, you headed
up the search party?
132
00:07:05,550 --> 00:07:08,970
Thirty eight girls died

- Brave women.
- Pioneers.
135
00:07:12,306 --> 00:07:16,811
Knew if they failed, no women
after them would stand a chance.
136

Who would have had access
to Vivian's plane?

00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,816
Um, known how to
switch the lines?
138
00:07:21,858 --> 00:07:25,695
Hmm, mechanics, instructors,
all the pilots.
139
00:07:25,736 --> 00:07:29,532
Any ideas why she
was flying off course?
140

00:08:56,494 --> 00:08:59,539
Somebody's got to fly
the plane for you nurses.
176
00:09:00,957 --> 00:09:03,584
She wasn't interested
in making friends.
177
00:09:03,626 --> 00:09:07,463
Each week, the WASP flight
scores were posted on a chart.
178
00:09:07,505 --> 00:09:09,257
And Vivian wanted to be on top.
179
00:09:09,298 --> 00:09:11,676
Wouldn't settle
for anything less.
180
00:09:11,717 --> 00:09:15,930
Gonna need a list of those WASP.
Their instructor, too.
181
00:09:15,972 --> 00:09:17,473
It's all in my book.
182
00:09:18,474 --> 00:09:21,060
Listed alphabetically
in the appendix.
183
00:09:26,524 --> 00:09:27,608
"Happy landings always."
184
00:09:27,650 --> 00:09:30,653
What we WASP say
instead of goodbye.
185
00:09:35,992 --> 00:09:37,827
Betty Joe Henders?
186
00:09:41,998 --> 00:09:43,457
Y'all call me Grammy.
187
00:09:43,499 --> 00:09:46,127
Everybody else does.
188
00:09:46,168 --> 00:09:47,920
You were a pursuit
pilot, right?
189
00:09:47,962 --> 00:09:52,466
Lifetime ago. Never fit in those
itty-bitty cockpits now.
190
00:09:52,508 --> 00:09:53,426
You understand.
191
00:09:53,467 --> 00:09:55,261
Detectives Jeffries, Vera.
192
00:09:55,303 --> 00:09:59,056
You were Vivian Lynn's bunkmate
at New Castle Airbase?
193
00:09:59,098 --> 00:10:02,059
Haven't heard that name in ages.
194
00:10:02,101 --> 00:10:03,269
Detectives?
195
00:10:03,311 --> 00:10:05,938
Thought bad weather
caused the crash.
196
00:10:05,980 --> 00:10:07,815
How'd you two get along?
197
00:10:07,857 --> 00:10:09,400
Peas in a pod.
198
00:10:09,442 --> 00:10:12,361
Both from small towns,
poor families.
199
00:10:12,403 --> 00:10:13,654
You fly a crop duster too?
200
00:10:13,696 --> 00:10:17,783
I took the Army's civil course
for my pilot's license.
201
00:10:17,825 --> 00:10:18,659
[chuckles]
202
00:10:18,701 --> 00:10:20,494
Had to beg my cousin Donald
203
00:10:20,536 --> 00:10:23,789
for the last sawbuck,
just to afford the classes.
204
00:10:23,831 --> 00:10:25,833
When was the last time
you saw Vivian?
205
00:10:25,875 --> 00:10:27,668
Day or two
before she disappeared.
206
00:10:27,710 --> 00:10:30,421
She ever talk about going
to New York, meet a boyfriend?
207
00:10:30,463 --> 00:10:34,884
Gals were all khaki wacky,
but not Viv.
208
00:10:34,925 --> 00:10:40,348
'Course we didn't call the base
"The Snake Pit" for nothing.

210
00:10:41,641 --> 00:10:45,770
Huh! Kick the tires and light
the fires. I'm on a roll.
211
00:10:45,811 --> 00:10:46,854
You wanna go again?
212
00:10:46,896 --> 00:10:48,356
Game's making me thirsty.
213
00:10:48,397 --> 00:10:50,274
Think I'll get some juice.
214
00:10:50,316 --> 00:10:51,942
Suit yourself, Louise.
215
00:10:51,984 --> 00:10:53,444
Hey, what do you say, Edna?
216
00:10:53,486 --> 00:10:55,988
Can't you let her win
just once?
217
00:10:56,030 --> 00:10:58,115
Don't see any of them flyboys
throwing a game.
218
00:10:58,157 --> 00:11:01,786
So...army's made it clear,
we ain't one of 'em.
219
00:11:01,827 --> 00:11:04,497
Doing the same job,
not getting paid near as much.
220
00:11:04,538 --> 00:11:06,916
It won't change either till
we show them we're as tough
221
00:11:06,957 --> 00:11:08,167
as they are.
222
00:11:08,209 --> 00:11:09,794
Tougher even.
223
00:11:13,839 --> 00:11:15,758
You need a lesson there, doll?
224
00:11:17,134 --> 00:11:19,261
You can call me Wolf.
225
00:11:19,303 --> 00:11:20,888
I could teach you
a thing or two.
226
00:11:20,930 --> 00:11:22,807
You see, it's..
227
00:11:22,848 --> 00:11:24,225
it's all in the wrist.
228
00:11:24,266 --> 00:11:26,435
Gosh, are you a real-life pilot?
229
00:11:26,477 --> 00:11:28,145
(Wolf)
'Shouldn't even be
telling you this.'
230
00:11:28,187 --> 00:11:30,690
Loose lips
sink ships and all.
231
00:11:32,525 --> 00:11:34,777
I fly the B-26.
232
00:11:34,819 --> 00:11:36,153
So, they call it the Widow Maker
233
00:11:36,195 --> 00:11:38,489
'cause the last three pilots..
234
00:11:38,531 --> 00:11:39,615
...bought the farm.
235
00:11:39,657 --> 00:11:42,076
"The Widow Maker?"
That sounds dangerous.
236
00:11:42,118 --> 00:11:43,619
Say, you're not married,
are you?
237
00:11:43,661 --> 00:11:45,705
No, I'm lookin' for somebody
to fill the position.
238
00:11:45,746 --> 00:11:47,331
Maybe you'd like to apply.
239
00:11:47,373 --> 00:11:48,624
Gettin' ahead
of yourself, flyboy.

Hey, get your meat hooks
off of me!
242
00:11:58,426 --> 00:12:01,137
You're gonna regret
that, little miss.
243
00:12:09,937 --> 00:12:11,689
Wolf was lathered up, alright.
244
00:12:11,731 --> 00:12:13,816
Won't take a no
for an answer.
245
00:12:13,858 --> 00:12:15,735
He didn't know
Vivian was a WASP?
246
00:12:15,776 --> 00:12:17,361
Lordy no, we were in our civvies
247
00:12:17,403 --> 00:12:21,866
due to the fundamental dislike
of a woman in uniform.
248
00:12:21,907 --> 00:12:23,075
This Wolf's got a real name?
249
00:12:23,117 --> 00:12:24,410
Just knew him as Wolf.
250
00:12:24,452 --> 00:12:28,247
Us girls kept a "Naughty"
and "Nice" list by the phone.
251
00:12:28,289 --> 00:12:30,374
Vivian put him
on the Naughty side.
252
00:12:30,416 --> 00:12:33,252
No one went
near that animal again.
253
00:12:33,294 --> 00:12:35,921
One pilot
with the call sign Wolf.
254
00:12:35,963 --> 00:12:38,507
- Herbert James.
- Herbert?
255
00:12:38,549 --> 00:12:39,800
No wonder he preferred Wolf.
256
00:12:39,842 --> 00:12:43,596
Any relation to Frank James,
the WASP's instructor?
257
00:12:43,637 --> 00:12:45,723
Brothers. Whole family
of flyboys.
258
00:12:45,765 --> 00:12:47,308
Guy had a real problem
with women.
259
00:12:47,349 --> 00:12:50,227
There's, uh,
five charges of misconduct.
260
00:12:50,269 --> 00:12:52,438
Way of saying
"sexual harassment"
261
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:53,564
back in the day.
262
00:12:53,606 --> 00:12:55,357
Vivian goes missing
two weeks after Wolf
263
00:12:55,399 --> 00:12:57,860
harassed her at the all-ranks
club on base.
264
00:12:57,902 --> 00:13:01,447
He was completing
his final flight test that day.
265
00:13:01,489 --> 00:13:03,532
Would've had access
to the hangar.
266
00:13:03,574 --> 00:13:05,159
Oh, maybe Wolf decided
he wasn't gonna be
267
00:13:05,201 --> 00:13:07,369
the only one to crash and burn.
268
00:13:23,260 --> 00:13:25,221
You wanna explain
this complaint?
269
00:13:25,262 --> 00:13:27,598
It was filed with
Internal Affairs last night
270
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,059
by Moe Kitchener.
271
00:13:30,100 --> 00:13:31,727
Ah, we aren't doing our jobs
if we don't get
272
00:13:31,769 --> 00:13:32,895
some complaints, right?

Situation's interfering
with your job, Lil.
274
00:13:34,855 --> 00:13:36,148
Wouldn't be, if
the judge did his job.
275
00:13:36,190 --> 00:13:38,234
I understand what
you're going through.
276
00:13:38,275 --> 00:13:41,028
But Doherty's looking
for excuses like this.
277
00:13:41,070 --> 00:13:43,739
The whole division
is under scrutiny.
278
00:13:43,781 --> 00:13:45,491
I hear you, boss.
279
00:13:45,533 --> 00:13:47,159
Good.
280
00:14:04,969 --> 00:14:07,596
You're a hard man
to find, Herbert.

Kicked out of five retirement
homes for spreading a VD.

gave that VD--
284
00:14:14,603 --> 00:14:16,063
I-I d-don't wanna hear it.

when you were stationed

in the Mustang, right?

in the Roxborough Reservoir.

I had something to do with it?

the spanking

Got mechanics records, but most
of them are pushing daisies.

Looked into the 38
WASP killed in wrecks.

One was in Vivian's class,
Edna Reed.

Accident report say anything
about her lines being switched?
353
00:16:47,548 --> 00:16:51,760
Burned pistons. Looking like
routine mechanical failure.
354
00:16:51,802 --> 00:16:56,265
I, uh, heard about the IAB.
355
00:16:56,306 --> 00:16:57,391
Moe's complaint.

00:16:57,433 --> 00:17:01,353
Oh, uh, hmm,
got him on the ropes.

00:17:06,483 --> 00:17:08,610
Uh, taking lost time.

look like to you?

00:17:17,870 --> 00:17:19,955
Call it rucksack gray.

you doing here?

Ah, I was just driving past.

out of the doctor's.

372
00:17:44,438 --> 00:17:46,273
uh, take Mrs. Melztner
373
00:17:46,315 --> 00:17:49,651

She something
more than that?
396

Well, I guess you could say
we were an item.
397
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:12,484

'cause I was her instructor.

Do you know why?
402
00:19:20,159 --> 00:19:22,327
She was an ace navigator.
403
00:19:22,369 --> 00:19:24,872
Male pilots used to follow
her back to the base.

She was profiteering.

The war caused shortages..

00:24:59,623 --> 00:25:02,584
Shame she never got
the one thing she wanted.
523
00:25:02,626 --> 00:25:03,585
What was that?
524
00:25:03,627 --> 00:25:07,005
To be the first woman
to fly that jet.
525
00:25:07,047 --> 00:25:08,965
- Remember who was?
- Sure.
526
00:25:09,007 --> 00:25:11,176
Vivian's main competition.
527
00:25:11,218 --> 00:25:13,595
Louise Patterson.
528
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,892
Louise Patterson?
529
00:25:18,934 --> 00:25:21,061
Yes?
530
00:25:23,104 --> 00:25:25,607
Flew the Bell P-59, right?
531
00:25:25,649 --> 00:25:27,359
First woman ever.
532
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,528
You two looking
for an interview?
533
00:25:29,569 --> 00:25:31,238
You could say that.
534
00:25:31,279 --> 00:25:32,906
Detectives Valens, Rush.
535
00:25:32,948 --> 00:25:35,909
Remember your old WASP buddy,
Vivian Lynn?
536
00:25:35,951 --> 00:25:38,703
Of course I remember Vivian.
Real live wire.
537
00:25:38,745 --> 00:25:41,665
How'd you feel when Vivian
dusted you on the score chart?
538
00:25:41,706 --> 00:25:42,958
Check your facts.
539
00:25:42,999 --> 00:25:44,459
I was on top of the chart.
540
00:25:44,501 --> 00:25:45,669
Oh, by default.
541
00:25:45,710 --> 00:25:49,464
- The better pilot was murdered.
- Murdered?
542
00:25:49,506 --> 00:25:50,423
Oh, dear God, how?
543
00:25:50,465 --> 00:25:51,550
I read your cover story
544
00:25:51,591 --> 00:25:53,760
in "The Atlantic,"
September '54.
545
00:25:53,802 --> 00:25:55,345
First woman to break
the sound barrier.
546
00:25:55,387 --> 00:25:57,430
Said you'd do anything
to set that record.
547
00:25:57,472 --> 00:26:00,016
That include getting rid
of your competition?
548
00:26:00,058 --> 00:26:01,768
Look, you're right.
549
00:26:01,810 --> 00:26:03,812
Vivian and I had a rocky start.
550
00:26:03,853 --> 00:26:09,234
But we bonded in a way
I could never have imagined.
551
00:26:09,276 --> 00:26:10,652
[explosion]
552
00:26:11,361 --> 00:26:13,572
Crash! It's Edna!
553
00:26:13,613 --> 00:26:14,906
- No!
- 'Vivian..'
554
00:26:14,948 --> 00:26:16,658
- No!
- Wait!
555
00:26:16,700 --> 00:26:18,493
(Vivian)
'No!'
556
00:26:18,535 --> 00:26:22,372
No, no, no.
557
00:26:22,414 --> 00:26:23,999
There is nothing you
could have done.
558
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,459
No, Edna was ready.
I taught her myself.
559
00:26:26,501 --> 00:26:27,586
Checked her plane myself.
560
00:26:27,627 --> 00:26:30,171
Someone did this to her!
561
00:26:30,213 --> 00:26:32,424

Not a day goes by I don't think

575
00:27:33,526 --> 00:27:36,196
Vivian thought the men
wanted the WASP gone?
576
00:27:36,237 --> 00:27:40,116
WASP were doing the same jobs
as male pilots.
577
00:27:40,158 --> 00:27:41,951
Freeing up men
for combat duty.
578
00:27:41,993 --> 00:27:44,829
Only by this time,
the war was winding down.
579
00:27:44,871 --> 00:27:47,999
Army had enough pilots.
It needed infantry.
580
00:27:48,041 --> 00:27:50,585
Some of the guys were afraid
they were gonna lose their jobs?
581
00:27:50,627 --> 00:27:53,088
And be drafted as foot soldiers.
582
00:27:54,756 --> 00:27:56,216
What ya got, Scotty?
583
00:27:56,257 --> 00:28:01,680
Uh, Army said, uh, Edna's crash
was a mechanical failure
584
00:28:01,721 --> 00:28:05,058
due to clogged fuel lines
and burned pistons.
585
00:28:05,100 --> 00:28:06,685
But this maintenance report
586
00:28:06,726 --> 00:28:09,521
says her lines were flushed
two days prior.
587
00:28:09,562 --> 00:28:10,897
Airport mechanic I spoke to said
588
00:28:10,939 --> 00:28:13,233
they should've still
been squeaky clean.
589
00:28:13,274 --> 00:28:15,985
What if Vivian was
on to the sabotage?
590
00:28:16,027 --> 00:28:18,029
Doer decides
to silence her for good.
591
00:28:18,071 --> 00:28:20,031
Mechanic say what could cause
the pistons to burn?
592
00:28:20,073 --> 00:28:22,867
The only thing he could think
of was sugar in the gas tank.
593
00:28:22,909 --> 00:28:25,245
But sugar was hard to come by
during the war.
594
00:28:25,286 --> 00:28:26,496
Not if you were in the Army.
595
00:28:26,538 --> 00:28:29,708
You still got the
New Castle PX ledgers?
596
00:28:29,749 --> 00:28:32,752
Uh, yeah. Uh..
597
00:28:32,794 --> 00:28:34,129
Uh, here.
598
00:28:38,133 --> 00:28:41,511
Sugar was bought
the day before Edna crashed.
599
00:28:41,553 --> 00:28:43,012
Ten pounds.
600
00:28:43,054 --> 00:28:45,724
That's enough to gum up
the works of any engine.
601
00:28:45,765 --> 00:28:49,728
Signed for by one, Frank James.
602
00:28:51,146 --> 00:28:53,481
(Rush)
Cool your engines, Saccardo.
603
00:28:53,523 --> 00:28:55,900
I'll be there in ten.
604
00:28:55,942 --> 00:28:57,819
Okay, me, too.
605
00:28:57,861 --> 00:28:59,320
[Rush laughs]
606
00:28:59,362 --> 00:29:00,780
Bye.
607
00:29:03,158 --> 00:29:05,994
Big date tonight?
608
00:29:06,035 --> 00:29:08,830
I was just heading out
to mess with you some more.
609
00:29:11,458 --> 00:29:14,294
You wanna back up
your car now?
610
00:29:14,335 --> 00:29:17,005
Car dry up or they
got you a new one?
611
00:29:19,632 --> 00:29:21,676
I said back away.
612
00:29:24,429 --> 00:29:26,931
You gonna shoot me,
detective?
613
00:29:26,973 --> 00:29:31,770
Now, how do you think that'll
look after I filed a complaint?
614
00:29:31,811 --> 00:29:37,108
The more you push,
the less I have to lose.
615
00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:03,468
[sighs]
616
00:30:04,260 --> 00:30:06,554
Been reading up
on my WASP history.
617
00:30:06,596 --> 00:30:07,972
You got something
off Vivian's skirt?
618
00:30:08,014 --> 00:30:10,600
Sent it to Criminalistics
on a hunch.
619
00:30:10,642 --> 00:30:14,687
Found traces
of "Alizarin cyanines."
620
00:30:14,729 --> 00:30:16,356
Hmm, some kind of chemical?
621
00:30:16,397 --> 00:30:19,150
Uh, used in Santiago Blue dye.
622
00:30:19,192 --> 00:30:22,362
Skirt was a part
of Vivian's dress uniform.
623
00:30:23,863 --> 00:30:26,366
(Vera)
'She wasn't flying north
for a date.'
624
00:30:26,407 --> 00:30:28,409
She was on official business.
625
00:30:28,451 --> 00:30:30,703
(Stillman)
Lil, Frank's in the box.
626
00:30:30,745 --> 00:30:32,914
You ready?
627
00:30:44,342 --> 00:30:48,346
Fear is a funny thing,
isn't it, Frank?
628
00:30:48,388 --> 00:30:50,098
I don't know what you mean, sir.
629
00:30:50,139 --> 00:30:54,310
You were drafted in '43,
supposed to ship off to Europe.
630
00:30:54,352 --> 00:30:57,146
But you became
a flight instructor instead.
631
00:30:57,188 --> 00:30:58,231
Kept you on American soil.
632
00:30:58,273 --> 00:30:59,607
I served my country, sir.
633
00:30:59,649 --> 00:31:02,235
(Stillman)
'WASP wanted to be
recognized as equals.'
634
00:31:02,277 --> 00:31:04,612
Have the same benefits
as Army men.
635
00:31:04,654 --> 00:31:06,030
But if that happened
636
00:31:06,072 --> 00:31:09,242
there'd be even fewer jobs
for men stateside.
637
00:31:09,284 --> 00:31:11,202
You might've been
dodging bullets
638
00:31:11,244 --> 00:31:12,662
on a beach
in Normandy instead.
639
00:31:12,704 --> 00:31:14,122
I lost a baby brother
over there.
640
00:31:14,163 --> 00:31:17,333
You think maybe you could scare
them into quitting, Frank?
641
00:31:19,085 --> 00:31:20,962
Hmm, you a tough guy?
642
00:31:23,673 --> 00:31:25,133
I get to do that, too.
643
00:31:25,174 --> 00:31:28,428
I helped those girls.
644
00:31:28,469 --> 00:31:31,139
Anything they needed,
I was there for 'em.
645
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,977
This your signature, Frank?
646
00:31:37,437 --> 00:31:40,857
That much sugar'd do
a real number on an engine.
647
00:31:40,899 --> 00:31:43,276
I didn't sign this.
648
00:31:43,318 --> 00:31:46,237
You're saying someone
forged your signature?
649
00:31:47,697 --> 00:31:49,616
Vivian tried to tell me..
650
00:31:50,909 --> 00:31:53,328
...but I wouldn't listen.
651
00:32:05,381 --> 00:32:08,259
Viv? Is that you?
652
00:32:08,301 --> 00:32:09,594
I had to see you.
653
00:32:09,636 --> 00:32:11,429
Get caught past taps,
they'll wash you out.
654
00:32:11,471 --> 00:32:13,222
I checked the mechanic's log.
655
00:32:13,264 --> 00:32:15,099
Edna's fuel lines were flushed
two days ago.
656
00:32:15,141 --> 00:32:16,184
Slow down.
657
00:32:16,225 --> 00:32:19,187
Her plane shouldn't
have stalled, Frank.
658
00:32:19,228 --> 00:32:20,897
Viv, you're upset.
659
00:32:22,523 --> 00:32:25,276
I saw Wolf milling around the
hangar last night by himself.
660
00:32:25,318 --> 00:32:27,153
He said he was filling
out his flight log
661
00:32:27,195 --> 00:32:29,697
but I know what he was doing.
662
00:32:29,739 --> 00:32:31,824
I think he sabotaged
Edna's plane.
663
00:32:31,866 --> 00:32:33,117
Wolf would never do that.
664
00:32:33,159 --> 00:32:34,869
You know how he feels
about us girls.
665
00:32:34,911 --> 00:32:37,580
It's not like
he tries to hide it.
666
00:32:37,622 --> 00:32:39,791
He's my brother, Viv.
667
00:32:41,125 --> 00:32:42,085
My brother.
668
00:32:42,126 --> 00:32:45,630
Edna was my friend.
And she's dead.
669
00:32:45,672 --> 00:32:47,215
You know what
my family's been through.
670
00:32:47,256 --> 00:32:50,468
Your family got a star
to hang in the window.
671
00:32:50,510 --> 00:32:51,636
What does Edna's family get?
672
00:32:51,678 --> 00:32:53,805
The Army won't even pay
to send her home.
673
00:32:53,846 --> 00:32:55,348
You want a damn star?
674
00:32:55,390 --> 00:32:57,976
I want Wolf court-martialed.
675
00:33:00,937 --> 00:33:02,522
I love you..
676
00:33:03,940 --> 00:33:06,275
...but planes crash, Viv.
677
00:33:07,819 --> 00:33:08,987
[scoffs]
678
00:33:15,368 --> 00:33:16,536
I thought we
were gonna travel
679
00:33:16,577 --> 00:33:19,038
with the wind
and the stars.
680
00:33:29,841 --> 00:33:32,343
God help me
for not believing Vivian.
681
00:33:33,136 --> 00:33:36,389
My mother had already lost
a son in the war.
682
00:33:36,431 --> 00:33:39,100
I couldn't let her
lose another.
683
00:33:39,142 --> 00:33:41,310
Wolf know Vivian
was on his tail?
684
00:33:41,352 --> 00:33:45,523
I confronted him
about what she'd told me.
685
00:33:45,565 --> 00:33:47,025
He just denied it.
686
00:33:47,066 --> 00:33:48,359
When was that?
687
00:33:49,110 --> 00:33:52,321
It was the night
before she disappeared.
688
00:33:54,741 --> 00:33:56,617
All these years..
689
00:33:56,659 --> 00:33:58,411
...I looked out for him..
690
00:33:59,662 --> 00:34:02,707
...put him first.
691
00:34:02,749 --> 00:34:05,376
Think he'd do
the same for you?
692
00:34:07,503 --> 00:34:09,464
Just got to get you
to sign a bail petition
693
00:34:09,505 --> 00:34:10,631
for your brother, Wolf.
694
00:34:10,673 --> 00:34:12,759
Bail?
What'd Frank do?
695
00:34:13,718 --> 00:34:16,804
Laced Edna Reed's tank
with ten pounds of sugar.
696
00:34:16,846 --> 00:34:20,224
Turning him over
to the MPs for Edna's murder.
697
00:34:20,266 --> 00:34:21,559
Frank wouldn't hurt a fly.
698
00:34:21,601 --> 00:34:25,730
Got a New Castle PX ledger
with his signature on it.
699
00:34:25,772 --> 00:34:27,356
[door shuts]
700
00:34:38,951 --> 00:34:41,496
It wasn't Frank.
701
00:34:41,537 --> 00:34:43,706
It was me.
702
00:34:43,748 --> 00:34:45,374
(Wolf)
'Drank through my paycheck
that month.'
703
00:34:45,416 --> 00:34:48,086
I had to charge everything
to Frank's account.
704
00:34:50,254 --> 00:34:51,923
I put that sugar in Edna's tank.
705
00:34:51,964 --> 00:34:54,258
I mean, me and the guys had
done it to other gals before.
706
00:34:54,300 --> 00:34:56,677
I figured she'd have hit
the silk like the others did
707
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:58,346
parachute out
when the engine stalled.
708
00:34:58,387 --> 00:35:01,140
Report said the latch
on the cockpit was broken.
709
00:35:01,182 --> 00:35:03,309
I didn't know
about that latch.
710
00:35:03,351 --> 00:35:05,978
She tried to bail out,
and she couldn't.
711
00:35:06,020 --> 00:35:07,688
She was trapped.
712
00:35:09,982 --> 00:35:12,485
I didn't mean
to hurt that girl.
713
00:35:15,488 --> 00:35:18,825
I still have nightmares
about it to this day.
714
00:35:18,866 --> 00:35:20,576
Gonna need the names
of your co-conspirators.
715
00:35:20,618 --> 00:35:22,036
No, I'm taking the
bullet on this one.
716
00:35:22,078 --> 00:35:25,414
No sense in tarnishing
their memories.
717
00:35:25,456 --> 00:35:27,792
Should've done it anyway
the night I went to see Vivian.
718
00:35:27,834 --> 00:35:30,253
You saw Vivian
before she disappeared?
719
00:35:30,294 --> 00:35:31,921
I pleaded with her
not to report me.
720
00:35:31,963 --> 00:35:33,089
And she didn't listen
721
00:35:33,131 --> 00:35:34,590
so you took matters
into your own hands?
722
00:35:34,632 --> 00:35:37,385
No, I wouldn't touch a hair
on that girl's head.
723
00:35:37,426 --> 00:35:39,178
Even if I wanted to,
I couldn't.
724
00:35:39,220 --> 00:35:40,429
Why is that?
725
00:35:40,471 --> 00:35:42,014
She'd already filed a report.
726
00:35:42,056 --> 00:35:43,432
I saw her signature
and everything.
727
00:35:43,474 --> 00:35:44,934
I just went back
to the barracks
728
00:35:44,976 --> 00:35:47,311
packed my duffel and waited.
729
00:35:48,688 --> 00:35:50,815
MP's never came.
730
00:35:50,857 --> 00:35:53,484
So who'd she file
that report with?
731
00:35:53,526 --> 00:35:57,530
When someone filed a report
with you, what'd you do with it?
732
00:35:57,572 --> 00:35:58,865
Sent it up the chain of command.
733
00:35:58,906 --> 00:36:01,659
So when Vivian filed a report
about Edna Reed's crash
734
00:36:01,701 --> 00:36:02,869
you send that up?
735
00:36:02,910 --> 00:36:04,662
Edna's crash
was an accident.
736
00:36:04,704 --> 00:36:06,706
There wasn't a report.
737
00:36:08,541 --> 00:36:10,793
Weak sheep like Edna.
738
00:36:10,835 --> 00:36:13,004
Nothing but a drain
on your program.
739
00:36:13,045 --> 00:36:14,130
You were probably happy
740
00:36:14,172 --> 00:36:17,592
to have someone
thin out the herd.
741
00:36:17,633 --> 00:36:21,137
You ask me,
they were probably all weak.
742
00:36:21,179 --> 00:36:23,764
Women fly as well as men.
It's on the record.
743
00:36:23,806 --> 00:36:26,976
Women took more money to train,
had more accidents.
744
00:36:27,018 --> 00:36:28,728
They can't hack
it in the sky.
745
00:36:28,769 --> 00:36:30,396
Enough, Scotty.
746
00:36:34,859 --> 00:36:36,235
Get some air.
747
00:36:44,952 --> 00:36:46,245
Yes, ma'am.
748
00:36:52,335 --> 00:36:53,294
[Rush sighs]
749
00:36:53,336 --> 00:36:55,713
I apologize for my partner.
750
00:36:56,505 --> 00:36:58,549
I know what it's like.
751
00:36:58,591 --> 00:36:59,926
You show one crack--
752
00:36:59,967 --> 00:37:02,136
Wolves tear you to pieces.
753
00:37:02,178 --> 00:37:03,554
Yeah.
754
00:37:03,596 --> 00:37:06,974
You know, I finished
reading your book.
755
00:37:07,016 --> 00:37:08,935
You fought hard
for those girls.
756
00:37:08,976 --> 00:37:11,145
Had to fly every month
to Mitchell Field
757
00:37:11,187 --> 00:37:13,397
to file a report
with General Stockton.
758
00:37:13,439 --> 00:37:15,441
Orders to keep him in the loop.
759
00:37:15,483 --> 00:37:19,111
Made him see how important
the WASP were to the country.
760
00:37:19,153 --> 00:37:22,990
You said Viv might have had
a boyfriend in Manhattan?
761
00:37:23,032 --> 00:37:24,492
You still believe that?
762
00:37:25,952 --> 00:37:28,663
Gal could have been flying
a million different places.
763
00:37:28,704 --> 00:37:30,122
How do I know?
764
00:37:30,831 --> 00:37:32,041
Now..
765
00:37:35,169 --> 00:37:38,839
Which bases are
north of Wilmington?
766
00:37:38,881 --> 00:37:44,553
Otis in Massachusetts,
Mitchell Field in Long Island.
767
00:37:44,595 --> 00:37:47,098
So if she were flying
to Mitchell Field
768
00:37:47,139 --> 00:37:50,309
what would her landmarks
have been?
769
00:37:52,728 --> 00:37:56,023
After all these years,
hard to remember.
770
00:37:56,065 --> 00:37:58,901
But you flew it every month.
771
00:37:58,943 --> 00:38:01,153
Listen, I don't know
what you're gettin' at--
772
00:38:01,195 --> 00:38:03,864
Would Philly have been
a landmark?
773
00:38:05,533 --> 00:38:08,536
One of the landmarks, yes.
774
00:38:08,577 --> 00:38:12,873
You know why Vivian would have
packed her Santiago Dress Blues?
775
00:38:12,915 --> 00:38:16,460
We found it in
the bullet compartment.
776
00:38:16,502 --> 00:38:19,380
Maybe she was going
to see someone important
777
00:38:19,422 --> 00:38:21,590
like the general.
778
00:38:21,632 --> 00:38:23,718
I led the search party
for Vivian.
779
00:38:23,759 --> 00:38:24,927
She was my best pilot.
780
00:38:24,969 --> 00:38:26,137
Yeah, but the day Vivian left
781
00:38:26,178 --> 00:38:27,847
you put out next month's
flight schedule
782
00:38:27,888 --> 00:38:31,684
and your best pilot
wasn't on it.
783
00:38:33,185 --> 00:38:35,187
And there's only one
explanation for that, Iris.
784
00:38:35,229 --> 00:38:39,734
Is you knew that Vivian
wasn't coming back.
785
00:38:39,775 --> 00:38:42,403
I fought for those girls.
You said it yourself.
786
00:38:42,445 --> 00:38:43,988
But your program
was under attack
787
00:38:44,030 --> 00:38:47,867
and men were looking
for any excuse to shut it down.
788
00:38:47,908 --> 00:38:49,827
Heard some zipperheads saying
the only way
789
00:38:49,869 --> 00:38:53,164
to keep us out of their jobs
was to knock us out of the sky.
790
00:38:53,205 --> 00:38:55,499
And Edna's "accident"
was a crack.
791
00:38:55,541 --> 00:38:57,918
If they knew men
were targeting us WASP
792
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,671
it would've made headlines.
We would've lost it all.
793
00:39:00,713 --> 00:39:02,465
But Vivian wouldn't stop
till everyone knew.
794
00:39:02,506 --> 00:39:04,675
You buried that report
for the greater good.
795
00:39:04,717 --> 00:39:08,220
Women fly combat today
because of the WASP.
796
00:39:08,262 --> 00:39:10,097
Because of what we did.
797
00:39:10,139 --> 00:39:12,850
Little girls look up to me.
798
00:39:12,892 --> 00:39:15,311
I speak for the WASP.
799
00:39:15,353 --> 00:39:17,897
I speak for you.
800
00:39:18,898 --> 00:39:21,275
I speak for Vivian.
801
00:39:24,945 --> 00:39:27,239
She left me no choice.
802
00:39:30,618 --> 00:39:32,203
MP's still haven't
picked up Wolf.
803
00:39:32,244 --> 00:39:35,623
There's no formal investigation
of Edna's crash.
804
00:39:35,664 --> 00:39:39,085
- Your point, Miss Lynn?
- You canned my report.
805
00:39:40,086 --> 00:39:41,587
Do you know what'll happen
if they find out
806
00:39:41,629 --> 00:39:44,131
a man sabotaged a WASP plane?
807
00:39:44,173 --> 00:39:45,674
How this will look?
808
00:39:45,716 --> 00:39:47,802
It'll look like
what it is, murder.
809
00:39:47,843 --> 00:39:50,346
They're fighting a war, Vivian.
810
00:39:50,388 --> 00:39:52,681
You know how they'll fix this?
They'll shut us down.
811
00:39:52,723 --> 00:39:55,559
That's what you're worried
about, the program?
812
00:39:55,601 --> 00:39:57,103
What about Edna?
813
00:39:58,354 --> 00:40:00,398
Edna is gone.
814
00:40:00,439 --> 00:40:02,942
There is nothing we can do
to bring her back, Vivian.
815
00:40:02,983 --> 00:40:05,611
Our job now is to take care
of all the WASP.
816
00:40:05,653 --> 00:40:09,615
If the program is shut down,
we all have to stop flying.
817
00:40:09,657 --> 00:40:13,160
You'll never fly that jet.
818
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:15,871
Edna deserves justice.
819
00:40:15,913 --> 00:40:19,917
She would do the same
for me, for all of us.
820
00:40:19,959 --> 00:40:24,463
No one needs to know that you
illegally covered up my report
821
00:40:24,505 --> 00:40:28,509
if you send it
up the chain today.
822
00:40:40,271 --> 00:40:41,355
You're right.
823
00:40:41,397 --> 00:40:43,566
I don't know what
I was thinking.
824
00:40:43,607 --> 00:40:44,984
Go to Mitchell Field.
825
00:40:45,025 --> 00:40:47,736
Tell Stockton in person
what happened to Edna.
826
00:40:47,778 --> 00:40:49,447
General Stockton, ma'am?
827
00:40:49,488 --> 00:40:53,492
Don't ever let it be said
I don't look out for my girls.
828
00:40:53,534 --> 00:40:55,327
Thank you, ma'am.
829
00:40:55,911 --> 00:40:57,455
Vivian.
830
00:40:57,496 --> 00:40:59,415
Gonna need
your Santiago Blues.
831
00:40:59,457 --> 00:41:01,417
Yes, ma'am.
832
00:41:01,917 --> 00:41:03,669
Happy landings.
833
00:41:04,670 --> 00:41:06,172
